Evacuation code deciphered


Arcturus:"Evacuation code deciphered", (fra albummet "Sideshow symphonies", 2005):

change channel i am bored again
take five and restart the game
i suggest a different approach
remake the world with a devilish touch
evolution is a too slow ghost
relax and sit back i am your new host

fantastic elastic all things can be spastic
no room for bore press enter and store
we live in small shells put that on a shelf
e.s.p. for all big and small
saga-lore mature splendor
ragamuffin saga-puffin all you can snort

elctric eyes for sparkling flies
will be much more fun for the rejects and dumb
so what do you change
in your realms of decadence
king or queen or something snorty between
worlds shatter to darkness without matter
no matter no matter we stole

too far from home
rid your shoulders of this stone
which direction is up
what way to the top
it seems we are lost
this is no place to linger
let your throat embrace your finger
evacuate this tomb
there is always an exit
for aliens infected
our race
seems we crashed on the way
two dried up bugs trapped in the same web
slimy slugs on a busy rainy highway
you and i are not lost without words
we can live again without rebirth

two old drunks sharing the same cup
a pair of fools sailing where no wind blows
a band of burglars stealing traces from their lost shoes

(Tekst: Simen Hestnæs)


(Vil man gerne have sin heavy metal intellektuelt udfordrende, ligger det norske avantgarde metal-band Arcturus lige til højrebenet....om jeg så må sige. :-) Jeg blev interesseret i Arcturus i slutningen af 1990´erne primært af den årsag, at én af mine helte, Kristoffer "Garm" Rygg (Ulver), var forsanger i bandet, men hans afløser Simen Hestnæs´ præstation på albummet "Sideshow symphonies" kunne "Garm" næppe have gjort ham efter....Den egentlige grund til, at jeg har valgt at præsentere nummeret "Evacuation code deciphered", er dog, at det er Silje Wergeland´s smukke vokal, som man kan høre henimod slutningen....:-) Hun optræder nemlig som gæste-vokalist på "Sideshow symphonies", på to af numrene).
